Friends,
The crisp fall air has moved in across the country - it is a friendly reminder that the holiday season is fast approaching! It is also a reminder that Remembrance Day is upon us; we give thanks to all those who have served our country.
It also means that we are just three months away from celebrating our 1st Anniversary of the Foundation! We are pleased with our progress - thanks to our
Dollar-A-Dayers
, corporate and community supporters, and those who have made one-time gifts, we are making great progress and look forward to presenting gifts to our four charter causes during the holiday season!
You can be a part of this movement for improved mental health and addictions care! Please consider becoming a
Dollar-A-Dayer
- you can give monthly, quarterly, or annually - whatever works best for your personal situation.
We hope you will join us! Together, we
are
making a difference!
All the best,
Brendan, Alan & Andrew

Lest We Forget...
As November 11th approaches, we honor all those who have served our country and those who have made the supreme sacrifice.
We also take time to honour this year's Royal Canadian Legion Silver Cross Mother,
Ms. Anita Cenerini, who lost her son, Pte. Thomas Welch to suicide in 2004.
Learn more about Ms. Cenerini and her late son, Private Thomas Welch, from the Royal Canadian Legion,

Sharing Our Mission
We were delighted to meet recently with the team from Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada (TMMC). They share our belief in supporting the communities in which we live and work, and we had some wonderful discussions about making real change happen in Canada.
Thank you, TMMC, for valuing mental health, not only for your employees and their families, but for all members of your community. Together, we're on the road for better mental health and addictions care for all Canadians!

A Shout-Out to our
Dollar-A-Dayers
Our Founder, Alan Doyle, is on the road once again with his
Come Out With Me
tour. Recently, he made a stop in London, ON.
During his concert, Alan took a moment to talk about the Foundation, and those who make it all possible. Everyday people who care about mental health and addictions -
Dollar-A-Dayers -
like Pat!
Thanks to Pat for being a
Dollar-A-Dayer
- your gift is making a difference!
